Tackling Torture at the Top (T3) is a committee of WAMM and a group of women and men who work to expose complicity in torture by our country’s decision-makers, and to hold people to account for that complicity so that it does not continue. Furthermore, T3 works to expose the social and political structure that allowed and continues to allow these atrocities to occur. Lastly, T3 strives to induce justice and human rights where none exists. The committee was founded in 2004.

"Silence never won rights. They are not handed down from above; they are forced by pressures from below."

For Armistice Day, the Minneapolis Tackling Torture at the Top (T3) committee headed by FBI whistleblower Coleen Rowley hosted a discussion at First Unitarian Church to discuss the state of the US corporate Empire. Panelists include former Bush aid and chief of staff Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, Reverend Chris Antal (former army chaplain in Afghanistan), and MintPress editor Mnar A.
